Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On September 27, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors promoted Brett McGill to President and Chief Operating Officer, effective October 1, 2017.
Joe Watters, Board Member and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee Chairman, stated, "Brett McGill’s promotion to President and Chief Operating Officer is in recognition of his contributions that have made MarineMax the industry leader that it is today. Brett’s passion for the industry, his specific skill sets and his ability to build successful teams have been evident throughout his career. He has a close relationship with the MarineMax customer and he has done an outstanding job in overseeing the management of our stores and operations. Brett’s information technology roots have assisted the Company to stay on the leading edge in an ever-evolving digital world. As a Board, we are confident that his experience, leadership skills and knowledge will serve MarineMax well as he assumes his increased responsibilities as President."
Prior to his promotion, Brett McGill, age 48, served as MarineMax’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer since October 1, 2016 after serving as Executive Vice President Operations since October 2015 and Executive Vice President of West Operations since May 2012. Mr. McGill was appointed as an executive officer by the Company’s Board of Directors in November 2012. Prior to these roles, Mr. McGill served as one of the Company’s Regional Presidents from May 2006 to May 2012, as Vice President of Information Technology, Service and Parts from October 2004 to March 2006, and as Director of Information Services from March 1998 to October 2004.
In connection with the promotion, the Company did not enter into any material plan, contract or arrangement with, or make any grant or award to Brett McGill. As Brett McGill was appointed an executive officer of our company in November 2012, accordingly, compensation decisions relating to Brett McGill are performed in the same manner as for the Company’s other executive officers, as described in the "Compensation Discussion and Analysis" sections of the Company’s proxy statements since such appointment by the Board. Brett McGill is the son of William H. McGill Jr., our Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, and Director, who relinquished the title of President, effective October 1, 2017.
